Antilles Coffee started roasting coffee for their own Cafe in 1998 on the 15 kg Toper picture shown. It has taken many years of work to have the quality of coffee and Coffee Blends we have on the market. Antilles Coffee has won many awards in Nation wide commercial coffee competitions with all the blends, including our Decaf Supreme Blend.
We started roasting our own coffee a result of not being able to source reliable, flavoursome and fresh coffee. The vast majority of coffees available were either stale, very bitter or burnt and in most cases a combination of all three. Warehouses and distribution companies that do not understand the complexities of the coffee industry were the norm and they were flogging mass produced, stale unpalatable coffee which did not suit our requirements. Incidentally we had a massive increase in our retail coffee sales in our own cafe when we started using our own High Grade Coffees. After a favourable introduction of our roasted coffee in our own store we branded the coffee as Antilles Coffee and have made it available to other coffee outlets that are passionate about the quality of coffee they serve to their customers. The result is a very quick growing coffee company that prides itself on personalised service and giving informed information. Drawing on thirty five years of experience in the Hospitality Industry

All our coffees are roasted and sold direct to you, to ensure freshness and drinking qualities are maintained. We recommend purchasing small amounts of Coffee and purchased more often: purchase enough for about 4-6 weeks at the most. We roast pretty well on demand and don't use a distribution network to ensure you are not buying stale coffee.
